Intertoto Cup

The changes made to the Intertoto Cup two seasons ago will
continue, with only three rounds instead of five, and only one Spanish side
eligible for the competition, entering in the last round. The eleven winners of
this third round will then enter the second qualifying round of the UEFA cup,
meaning that they will still have to survive another tie before reaching the
first round proper of the competition. Spain's representative will not be
decided until the end of the league season, which finishes in the third week of
May. However they already know the possible countries that their opponents will
come from after today's draw paired them together the winners of a second round
tie between an Israeli team and the winners of the first round tie between
sides from Croatia and Macedonia. (21.04.08)

Deportivo La Coruña will be Spain's
representative in the competition this season after they finished ninth, and
the two sides above them Mallorca and Almería both decided not to
register. (18.05.08)

Deportivo's opponents will be be one of Rijeka (Croatia), Renova
(Macedonia) or Bnei Sakhnin (Israel). (21.06.08)
